I really enjoy Ethiopian food and I'm always looking for new spots around the city. I have a few other go-to spots and I'm adding Feedel to that list because they have a few things on their menu that really sets them apart for other Ethiopian restaurants.
First, the spread and variety of foods they prepared for the event I attended were amazing and really gave us a chance to try the dishes that set them apart from the rest. Second, everything on the menu was really good and while there were things that just were not "my" preference in general, the way they are prepared here I would absolutely try them again. As I've said, everything was amazing and delicious but my absolute favorites and what I'll be returning to have are: Feedel hummus, fu'ul, tofu fettuccine, and sagla's spris salmon. These are the dishes that really set them apart and dishes I have never seen at other Ethiopian restaurants.
The hummus was a nice surprise since I associated it with Middle Eastern cuisine, but the hummus here made me completely forget that. The fu'ul was another surprise for me, as I don't eat fava beans often so I had no expectations but I was blown away by the fu'ul, it might be by favorite of the favorite's. People often try to do bean chili in place of a meat based chili and it rarely works out well, this is the opposite of that. The fu'ul tastes exactly like chili, a very well done vegetarian chili. I've never seen salmon on an Ethiopian menu, so again I wasn't sure what to expect with the Sagla's spirs salmon. Maybe other meat based Ethiopian dishes since the ingredients are the same. It was delicious. And finally the tofu fettuccine which we had at the end of the meal. Another dish I've never had and was pleasantly surprised by. It was light, delicious, and a perfect end to an already amazing meal. I lean more on the pescatarian side, but the dishes are prepared so well here that you don't even realize that most of the dishes were vegan or vegetarian.
Over all amazing experience and I can't wait to go back.
